Abstract
Objectives: Participants will learn to use the online software - GRADEpro (www.gradepro.org) - to prepare 'Summary of findings' (SoF) tables for Cochrane Reviews and work with RevMan.
Description: This is a guided hands-on workshop using GRADEpro. Participants will need to bring their own (charged) laptop or share with another if they would like to practice on GRADEpro. Otherwise, participants can watch the demonstration.
SoF tables are an important part of Cochrane Reviews and it is highly desirable to include them in Cochrane Reviews. GRADEpro is freely available online to create SoF tables. It can be used on personal (PC) and Mac computers. It can import data and analyses from RevMan 5 files, guide users through creation of SoF tables, and export SoF tables to RevMan. GRADEpro also facilitates your assessment of the confidence in effects or quality of evidence (using risk of bias across studies, inconsistency, indirectness, imprecision and publication bias) and the presentation of results.
We will guide participants in a hands-on and step-by-step workshop, to create a SoF table using GRADEpro. Participants can use an example representative Cochrane Review, or choose their own review (provided that meta-analyses are already done). In addition to the presenter, other tutors will be available throughout the workshop to help and support participants, or provide more advanced information.
